Topic: Restroom with a TG - How do you react?

[PANTS!]

I think Karyn says that when she has NO IDEA of the horrors of the Male communal bathroom.

There is literally no freaking way I could get it to work with that kind of privacy particularly now that I'm on the crazy pills. What's up with bashful bladder? Seems to be tied to my comfort level with the person. I can urinate no problem with my wife, it's a little harder with family and friends, and then impossible with strangers.

I'm exactly the same way.  It doesn't bother me at all to piss in front of my wife...but even standing next to someone at a urinal makes it hard to go.

I would put lots of money down to say you are dead wrong!

I agree with Karyn entirely, but there are definitely realities of male restrooms which I wouldn't deal with if I had the option.  That being said, if men knew women would be using the same toilets, maybe they'd go to the trouble of not literally aiming for the seat when they pee.

The reason why I ask is that I think a lot of relatively liberal woman still have trouble with the idea of transgenders using their bathrooms. How might that situation be changed?

[hasculf]

All I care is that any person in a public area users the facilities that move waste to the place it is supposed to go, man woman ts, its all the same, if dogs could do it I would be in favor of then using the bathroom too.

Unless I want to have sex with someone, their equipment is irrelevant to me. Separate restrooms and the need for them because of perversion are relics of religious control of the world, marks left that will probably stay with us now.

[Hanes]

I wouldn't care about coed bathrooms, so that sort of answers the question.

This one's all honey badger about it.



(Erm...not intended to be an excrement joke.)

Women piss on the seat and smear up the toilet up with their loose stools, too, ya know!

[Anders]

I'd silently go "none of my business" and concentrate on hitting the toilet seat.

[David E.]

I'd keep on evacuating.

[Kayto]

I'm a much smaller than average single female.
I also live near an area with a REALLY high crime rate (I work IN that really high crime rate area AND went to school in it.)

100% of my public restroom decisions (which one to use, where should I go, should I "hold it") have to do with my safety.

Where I live, the sight of a man following a women into a restroom (unless it looks like an OBVIOUS mistake) alerts witnesses to a possible violent crime.

HOWEVER, I had a co-worker once who most people thought was a woman who used to be a man. I would feel unbelievably safer in a public restroom if I knew she was there. But that is to say I feel safer in a public restroom when I am with another person whom I know ------ I don't care about their gender.

As for public policy - I don't know? If a large scary man is allowed to follow me into a public restroom, I'm going to have to watch the amount of liquid I consume.

But then again, I had a friend (male) who used to have to ask "strangers" for help when he thought his 6 year old daughter might be taking too long in the public restroom at the beach.

Do they piss on the floor, the wall, the toilet paper roll, the sink, etc?

Do they also throw soiled toilet paper on the floor, presumably because it's easier to do that than drop it in the toilet?

Do they routinely NOT flush when they leave (although most have gone to those autoflush things, which is nice)

[Boßel]

Except when you'e trying to wipe. It flushes because it thinks you have left, when you have only just leaned over. It gets your hand all wet and yucky. But overall, it is nice not having to walk up to a toilet with shit already in it.

Also, I wouldn't care about a TG in the bathroom with me. AT. ALL.

[jawmo]

Of all the objectionable shit I've seen in public restrooms, this ranks pretty far down the list, if at all.
